Yes, I’m frivolous. After spending £140 at the opc for a clutch helper spring and ashtray delete, I threw money at a chap parting out a 996.1 on Facebook. He had a set of alloy pedals which looked nice and I hope will give my car a bit of bling over the black pedal set. Just as I was starting to loose faith that I would ever see these or my money, Peter came good. Any advice on how to fit these? Do the black pedals come apart or do I need to drill holes in my pedals to fit these?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I've sent you a PM @Ray_Singh
I have the same set. You need to drill holes yes. Pig of a job, my mind has erased the fine details but something to do with the length or position of the bolts made it difficult
I saw something about a hinge mod on pedals. Might have dreamt it.
Think twice about fitting these Ray, if you drive a lot in the weather we have in the UK - they do look good but they might be slippy Maybe consider putting some grip pads on them to lower the risk of your foot slipping off
Thanks @nebpor , it’s a fair point. These have grippy bits on them that look and feel sturdy. I have had pedals on various cars that have been super slippy, a total pain in the bottom. I will give these a go but ‘drilling’ is scaring me.
Ah sorry, I didn't spot the grips - they looked like they were just metal! I put a set of metal Mugen pedals on my old Honda, but all the contact surfaces had a really nice friction material on them so they felt very solid. Because racecar haha
